Does anyone have the Horn of the Moon cookbook?


Recommended Posts

1-1/2 cups honey

1/2 cup butter, softened

1/4 cup sunflower oil

4 eggs, well beaten

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour

1 cup unbleached white flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

2 teaspoons baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons cinnamon

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 cups grated carrot (about 1 lb. carrots)

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Cream Cheese icing (page 267)

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whip honey, butter and oil together in a medium-sized bowl. Add eggs. Mix dry ingredients together and blend into honey-oil mixture. Add vanilla. Fold in carrots and walnuts.

 

Bake in oiled 10-inch springform tube pan 45 minutes to 1 hour, until toothpick comes out clean. Cool. Cut cake in half horizontally to make 2 layers. Ice between layers and on top and garnish with a few chopped walnuts. 10 servings.

 

CREAM CHEESE ICING

1-1/2 cups cream cheese, softened

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

6 T. maple syrup or 4 T. honey

 

Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Mix until smooth. (An electric mixer works well.) This recipe makes enough icing for a 2-layer top and bottom of a cake or 1 layer with sides iced as well (almost 2 cups).

 

Now I'm gonna have to make this. I'm going to a potluck wedding reception tomorrow night, so this might be the ticket.
